Nice condo, but unresolved issues impacted our stay!We really wanted to give this condo five stars because it worked very well for our family of five (2 adults, 3 young children). The layout was great, it was clean, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches, helpful home tips, and well-stocked kitchen and bathroom amenities. The property was quiet, and we enjoyed the indoor pool, outdoor pool, and hot tub (though they were a bit crowded).Unfortunately, our stay was significantly impacted by a major issue: upon arrival, a smoke detector was chirping every minute. It was located at the top of a very high vaulted ceiling and not reachable. We contacted Vacasa customer service right away and were told it would be fixed, but during our entire two-night stay it never was. The constant noise meant we barely slept.Additional minor issues included a non-working bidet, old food debris falling out of the sofa sleeper, spiderwebs under the Murphy bed, and shower amenity pumps that didn’t work well. Clearer instructions for amenities would also have helped—we didn’t know the pool hours and were almost denied entry.Overall, the condo itself is very nice, but maintenance and follow-through issues made this stay disappointing.
The horrible smoke detector!

Quirky But Comfortable Condo

The condo was quirky as the kitchen layout and bedroom door were unusual. More on that later. The good: plenty of room in the living room and bedroom, bed was fairly comfortable, bedet attachment on toilet, no noise from neighboring condos, and tvs and appliances worked okay. The bad: while both sinks had very hot water, the shower only provided lukewarm water even when the dial was turned all the way to hot, kichen utensils, pots and pans were not organized and were difficult to find, basically, inadequate kitchen storage space, heat was noisy, bedroom door was flimsy and noisy (metal slider), and middle shade in living room was inoperable due to broken cord. Most of the bad items were relatively minor, so we would give the condo a "4" rating overall which amounts to a qualified endorsement.
